Cavendish's spirit seemed to have been hit hard by a hammer, and his eyes suddenly opened.
"what happened?"
Cavendish, who had a vague pain in the back of his head, became more and more confused when he looked at Maud, who was still safe and sound in front of him and hadn't even moved.
But he didn't believe in evil and closed his eyes again.
However, this time it still ended in failure.
"what happened… ?"
Cavendish's mouth was slightly open and his eyes were wide open, as if he was experiencing something incredible.
In the past, maybe it was because of another personality in the body, as long as Cavendish had the idea of falling asleep and acted on it...
Then, Cavendish can often fall asleep within a second or two, and then another personality takes over the body.
This phenomenon has always been tried and true.
But this time it didn't work.
Inexplicably, Cavendish felt an eerie feeling.
It was like he took the initiative to help Li Ge lift the coffin board, but Li Ge didn't buy it at all and kicked him away.
Forget it, after re-covering the coffin board, Li Ge didn't forget to hammer in a few large nails.
Cavendish, who had never experienced such a situation before, was at a loss.
Maude had no time to answer Cavendish's doubts, and she was not in the mood to make trouble with Cavendish. She simply ducked behind Cavendish and immediately knocked Cavendish unconscious with a clap of her hands.
"captain!"
Seeing Morde "attacking" Cavendish, the members of the Handsome Pirates suddenly became furious.
"It's so noisy."
Maud glanced over.
Damn it!
I almost forgot that the man in front of me was a monster that could scare away Rommel's Weasel.
The members of the sensual and handsome pirate group immediately stopped.
An hour later, inside Xia Qi Bar.
Cavendish, who was tied into a rice dumpling, woke up again.
Then, he saw his crew members, including White Horse Falulu, sitting neatly and peacefully with their heads lowered, kneeling aside, looking very humble.
"you?"
Cavendish's expression changed, but he was relieved that the crew was safe.
"Captain..."
The crew looked at Cavendish pitifully, and then looked at Maud who was sitting at the bar drinking.
Cavendish followed the crew's gaze and looked at Maud, his face darkened, and there seemed to be flames burning in his eyes.
Maude glanced back at Cavendish, then ignored him and continued chatting with Shakirelli.
"So, the last supernova has already set off for Fish-Man Island?"
"Um."
Xia Qi nodded and said with a smile: "It seems that because I saw you bullying little Cavendish, I temporarily changed my plan and set off directly to Fish-Man Island. It is a rational decision."
"Did you run away? There's nothing you can do about it."
Maude put down the wine glass, held her chin, and said softly: "However, the heads of five supernovas should be enough."
"Even if you don't have these 'chips', given the World Government's historical style of doing things, I'm afraid it will be very happy to see you take the initiative to take over Moria's position."
Xia Qi removed the empty bottle of wine and took out a freshly opened bottle of wine.
Brooke tilted his head slightly and asked, "Why?"
When Xia Qi heard this, he glanced at Brooke and said with a smile: "Because the world government has to take care of one thing."
"what?"
Brooke was curious.
Xia Qi raised his finger and tapped his cheek a few times, and said with a smile, "It's so shameful."
"It turns out to be face."
Brooke suddenly understood, then opened his mouth and raised his head slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
After a moment, Brooke said "Ah", looking like he had completely understood.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Brooke.
But all I saw was Brooke holding his boney face in his hands: "Oh ho ho, I have no shame!"
“…”
The atmosphere inside the venue cooled down a bit.
Brooke, however, was not embarrassed at all. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of hot tea with great pleasure.
Xia Qi only thought that Brooke was very interesting and laughed very happily. Then he continued the topic and explained:
"For the World Government, the defeat of the carefully selected and painstakingly recruited Shichibukai is tantamount to a slap in the face. If you want to smooth your face as soon as possible, blocking the news is the best solution. "
"But World Economic News has already exposed this matter one step ahead, so it is obviously impossible to block the news."
"In this way, in order to calm the storm as soon as possible, the World Government needs to find a successor in a short period of time whose strength and reputation are not weaker than Moria, but a more suitable candidate cannot be found so easily."
"Under this premise, little Mod, who defeated Moria, recommended himself to the position of Shichibukai, which is equivalent to giving the World Government a step to solve this matter as quickly as possible."
Listening to Xia Qi's explanation, Brooke finally understood what the so-called face of the World Government meant.
"The position of Shichibukai?"
Cavendish stared at Maud sitting at the bar.
He was jealous of Mod stealing his limelight and his position as the first person in Supernova.
Therefore, he would rather not go to the New World, but stay on the Chambord Islands to cause trouble for Maud.
But what he didn't expect was that when he was focusing on the title of the first supernova, Mod was already planning for the position of Shichibukai.
Join the Shichibukai as a newcomer
How much eyeballs and attention would such a thing attract
"Completely lost..."
The anger in Cavendish's eyes faded like a tide.
Strength, goals, insights...
Not on the same level.
Not to mention, now I can't even take the title of the first supernova.
Cavendish slowly lowered his head, feeling that comparing people to each other would really make people mad.
Suddenly, I was filled with sadness and nowhere to put it.
The crew members were keenly aware that something was wrong with their captain, but in this situation, they did not dare to speak at all.
... ... ... ...
Naval Headquarters, Office of the Marshal.
"Marshal, among the Shichibukai who came under this summons, a total of three people arrived at the headquarters first, namely Sand Crocodile Crocodile, Donquixote Doflamingo, and Bartholomew Bear."
A navy man wearing sunglasses stood straight at his desk and reported on the progress of the Shichibukai meeting.
"Oh? Three are already here?"
Warring States raised his head slightly, a little surprised.
At every Shichibukai meeting, it would be great to have two present.
Unexpectedly, when there was still one day before the meeting started, three Shichibukai arrived first.
This was beyond Sengoku's expectations.
"Yes."
The sunglasses marine nodded solemnly and continued to report: "In addition to the Shichibukai mentioned just now, Kaixia Jinbei is also on his way to the headquarters."
“…”
Zeng Guo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Four are here...
It is truly unprecedented.
"Dong dong."
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Warring States looked towards the office door.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open.
Momosa Gion, wearing a navy coat, strode into the office with a refreshing scent.
Sengoku looked at Gion with calm eyes, waiting for his intention.
Gion got straight to the point: "Marshal Sengoku, I want to go to the Chambord Islands."
Chapter 160: Take the initiative to ask for help
Based on Momotu Gion's position, if you want to lead a group trip outside of missions and holidays, you must first submit an application and then wait for approval.
After all, not every lieutenant general is Garp.
It takes some time from submission of application to approval.
He came directly to the Marshal's office to find Warring States in order to avoid some troublesome procedures.
From this, we can see Gion's eagerness to some extent.
"To the Chambord Islands? Is it for Maud?"
Sengoku's eyes flashed, and he subconsciously looked at the intelligence documents neatly placed on the table. Among them was the information about Mod's arrival at the Chambord Islands.
Faced with Sengoku's inquiry, Gion simply nodded and admitted.
As soon as she learned the information about Maud's arrival in the Chambord Islands, she came over immediately.
Warring States groaned.
As for Maud's arrival at the Chambord Islands, from a long-term perspective, as a naval marshal, he would naturally not sit idly by.
However, as the Shichibukai Conference was approaching, he put this matter aside for the time being.
But he didn't expect that instead of him being in a hurry to deal with the matter, Gion was anxious first and even took the initiative to ask for help.
"That's fine, I'll leave the task of defeating Mod to you, Gion."
Sengoku agreed to Gion's offer without much thought.
His current focus is on the Shichibukai Conference, and it would save him a lot of trouble to let Gion handle the matter of Maude, a super newcomer.
"Then I'll leave now!"
When Gion heard this, his eyes shimmered, and he seemed a little impatient.
That reaction was noticed by the sunglasses marine on the side, and he felt slightly strange in his heart.
There were rumors in the army that Bacardi Mod seemed to have done something unforgivable to Peach Rabbit.
Therefore, when Bacardi Mod was still an unknown person, Taotu was running around and doing everything himself in order to get Bacardi Mod onto the reward list.
Thanks to Taotu's efforts, he was obviously just a little-known boy from Xihai, but before he made his official debut, he was directly offered a reward of 68 million beli.
Later, in order to deal with Mod, Peach Rabbit even went to Rogge Town to stay there.
And when Peach Rabbit learned that Mod had entered the Great Channel, he chased after him without saying a word.
